The Planet Express building, owned by Professor Hubert Farnsworth, is located in New New York city. It was built above a limestone cavern[1] and is the headquarters for Planet Express. The Professor, and presumably Dr. Zoidberg, are the only members of staff that actually live in the building, though Philip J. Fry initially lived there after being defrosted in the year 3000.
The building is divided into two sections. The smaller part is comprised of multiple floors and houses the offices and laboratories of the Professor. The larger section of the building is a hangar containing Planet Express ship, and has an automatic opening roof for takeoff and landing.
Areas

- The Professor has a glass dome on the roof of the building which he calls his Angry Dome. He goes there when he is angry and paces around shouting and making angry gestures. [2]

- Control tower where the crew uses the Smell-O-Scope.[4]
- Hermes' and Zoidberg's offices.[5]

- The building is located in New New York on what would be West 57th Street in New York, as said by David X. Cohen. However, John DiMaggio thinks that it looks a lot like a Queens street. The building is next to the Hudson River.[8] According to "Viva Mars Vegas", however, the Planet Express building is stated to be located on 72nd Street. In "The Inhuman Torch", the building is instead shown to be located in Battery Park City.
- The original building did not contain the observation dome, however the control tower on the building was inspired by a mutual friend of Cohen's, who was in air traffic control training in Oklahoma City at the time of the shows initial writing, and had suggested it be included.
- The Building also bears a striking resemblance to the Cointe Observatory in Liege, Belgium (See Picture) The design and Red-Brick Esq style of the building are in part inspired by the Cointe.
